Seeing we have been talking about towing off and on, how about a Bounty 11? 40' 10" long and 18,800lbs dry. That's Terra Nova in the yard getting a shave and haircut, two new seacocks, moving the engine 1/2" forward so a flexible coupler, coupler, shaft seal, shaft, cutless bearing and prop. The last of the flood damage replacements.
The tow vehicle in this case is a Ford F-350 diesel dually. As you can see from the squat at the rear, it is loaded to it's limits. The mast is alongside Terra Nova and soon as it is loaded on top of the Bounty, they are off for a short jaunt from Port Angeles, Washington to Florida. Wow! A 41 foot boat tow
ed by a pickup!
